According to a study called Wave7, Pinoys spend 53 hours a week posting, reposting, and reading posts. That's 11 hours more than the total of global social media usage!

Hence, Huawei comes up with devices that will instantly make you the hostpot.

There's the Flash, which can provide internet connection to "ten WiFi enabled devices with download speeds of up to 150Mbps and upload speed of 50Mbps." Plus it can last to up to "five hours of WiFi usage and up to 300 hours in standby mode."

The Spark can get you connected in a jiffy, as in five seconds! It can last up to "six hours of continuous usage and a standby time of up to 300 hours."

The Lightning "offers wireless access for up to 32 devices," and supports peak download speeds of up to 150mbps and upload speed to 50Mbps.
